Apple Releases Updated MacBooks

As rumors swirl about a new iPad and iPhone, Apple released an update to the old MacBook Pro laptop. It's faster, thanks to new Intel "Thunderbolt" technology, and it comes with a high-definition camera for FaceTime. "The new MacBook Pro brings next generation dual and quad Core processors, high performance graphics, Thunderbolt technology and FaceTime HD to the great design loved by our pro customers," said Philip Schiller, Apple senior vice president of marketing. Apple also previewed the next generation of their operating system, called "Lion," which, they say, "takes the best ideas from iPad and brings them to the Mac."
